Executive Chairman of the KGL Group, Alex Apau Dadey says implementing strong corporate governance practices will contribute to a better Ghana.
The successful entrepreneur and philanthropist with over 30 years of experience working across multiple industries said this in an interview on Joy FM's Personality Profile.
According to Mr Dadey, being a fervent supporter of effective corporate governance, one of my strong beliefs is that in our country, we should prioritize the implementation of sound corporate governance practices.
He told Lexis Bill that "for our company (KGL Group), establishing a governance structure like this is essential to exemplify discipline and a reciprocal relationship with society."
"It serves as a testament to our core values as a collective. Furthermore, the concept of longevity is crucial to me. Witnessing the continuity of companies in England, some established as far back as the 1750s and 1850s, I advocate for companies to outlive their founders.
This symbol signifies my presence here, ensuring that future generations will recognize this as a place where a visionary once laid the foundation, serving as a motivational force for those who will follow in our footsteps."
When questioned by Lexis Bill about the requisites for reaching the summit as a youthful professional with an entrepreneurial mindset, the recipient of the Man of The Year award at the recently concluded 8th EMY Africa Awards provided encouragement to every young individual, stating, that navigating the ranks of the corporate hierarchy often brings a sense of security, but transitioning from the corporate world to entrepreneurship is undeniably challenging.
"It demands dedication and perseverance, yet I firmly believe that for those who dare to embark on this journey, the rewards are unparalleled. My personal experience has been truly enriching.
While the corporate sector offers financial stability, transitioning into entrepreneurship brings the opportunity to earn in ways both familiar and uncharted," he added.
"Personally, I have been fortunate to recognize this potential within myself. Armed with the right vision and mindset, I approached this shift with unwavering confidence, drawing upon my prior corporate experiences to pave my path. Commitment and devotion are key requisites on this transformative journey."
